Last year, Chitrangda left the film mid way as she reportedly felt uncomfortable with how the director asked for retakes during a love making scene.
When asked about the issues, Nandy told reporters, "There were multiple issues with her... She had my script with her for one and a half years. The script was in detail, it had everything specified and even then if someone has any problem, I can't force anyone."
"There was no issue about intimate scenes because she had already shot it. She had issues with the script and wanted certain things to be changed. It was her decision (to not do the film)."
He was speaking at the trailer launch of the film here.
Actress Bidita Bag, who replaced Chitrangda, said there was no apprehension in taking over the role.
"I was waiting for an opportunity like this, where I could give an impressive performance. I am thankful to her (Chitrangada) for leaving this role."
The film is scheduled to release on August 25.
